1. A BRIEF HISTORY OF TRIUMPH BONNEVILLE T100
The first Triumph Bonneville 790 was introduced in 2009 at the Munich Motorcycle Show. The Bonneville 790 was equipped with a 790 cc parallel-twin engine and a 360° crankshaft.
Later in 2005, the Bonneville 790 was upgraded with an 865 cc engine with an air-cooling system. In 2017, Triumph introduced an air injection system to meet emission regulations.
In 2008, Triumph added the fuel injection system to achieve Euro 3 emission regulations. The fuel injectors were placed behind throttle bodies so that it resembles a carburetor.
In 2018, the Bonneville T100 model was introduced with a greater engine displacement of 900 cc and a liquid-cooling system. The crankshaft was also upgraded to 270°.
After 100 years, Triumph launched a limited number of Bonneville T100 special edition models in silver and Lucifer orange colors in 2002. On March 15, 2002, when the company was preparing for its 100th-anniversary celebration, the production plant caught fire and production stopped as a result. A limited number of centennial Bonneville T100s were produced due to this incident. After the remake of the factory, the centennial Bonneville T100 models were launched in 2003.
The latest 2021-2022 Triumph Bonneville T100 models come with 900 cc engine displacement, 64.1 HP power, and a beautifully designed body.
